Well he pretty much showed up his father this year. First he took a 6 point in archery in PA, then last Monday in Southern Ohio shot a big 10 point with my TC muzzleloader. I'm glad he's into the hunting and has been successful. He may be spoiled with the big buck but then it would only complete his being spoiled in all areas

ronn, I cross my fingers every day! We worry about our kids just about every waking moment it seems like. Anyway, he's bringing the head up home on the 15th to take it to the taxidermist. I'll get a photo to post soon.

My # 1 son showed me up three years ago. He's bagged the biggest buck on our property to date. Now I have to get home so that # 2 son will have a chance to show me up this year. If not, there's always next year.

Congrats to all dads out there who have passed the love of deer hunting on to their sons and daughters!
